    I placed an order for the replacement.


    It was on back order with estimated 3 weeks lead time…


    Yesterday, I had to drive long miles for a meeting and the NSX was parked on the street in the rain.


    After the meeting, started the engine and the ABS warning ...

    After spending hours, finally, managed to move R & L drive shaft spline from the hub.


    I had to apply so much pressure using the hydraulic puller that I thought I would break the tool.


    I used this puller so many times but never had to apply this amount of force in the past.


    As I need to have maximum space especially on the left drive shaft to pop out the inboard joint, I’m ...

    After checking the circuit, it’s time to install the new capacitors.


    After cleaning the board one more time and carried out the inspection, applied the conformal coating to the board.


    At the same time, re-soldered two Main Relays (for another owner) and coated them as well.

  4. A/C Climate Control Unit (CCU) 02

    by , 15-02-2011 at 11:45 PM (Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer)
    As I need to be in another meeting this afternoon, decided to work on the CCU for a while.


    Although there were lots of capacitor leakages, considering the actual age of the board, the damage level was better than other boards that I serviced in the past.

    I’m afraid, this doesn’t look good.


    At the bottom of the ABS reservoir, there were lots of black debris and even some silver dust were seen.
